Here is a sneak detail preview of the first of Doug Pelton’s <strong>TC</strong><br />
EXUs nearing completion. The wiring to the regulator shows<br />
his attention to detail. The <strong>TC</strong> is at the upholstery shop now<br />
and he is waiting for the front wings (which the painter has<br />
had for 15 months).<br />

SU CARB DASHPOT CAPS<br />
by Doug Pelton<br />
The following information is a summary<br />
of my finding on the different engraving<br />
on the tops of the dash pot oil caps.<br />
It is by no means conclusive as there<br />
where limited responses to validate<br />
information. The following examples are<br />
discoveries to date and their “assumed”<br />
vintage. All of these caps are brass and<br />
have a knurled edge similar to the edge<br />
of a US quarter.<br />
1. Prewar and very early <strong>TC</strong> (<strong>May</strong>be<br />
just enough to use up prewar supplies)<br />
These caps had a slot. Also noteworthy,<br />
is the fact that there were no dampeners<br />
on the early caps. Early float bowl lids<br />
had a different casting and were chrome<br />
plated. The banjo bolt fittings were<br />
smooth and rounded. Markings:<br />
Above the slot:<br />
USE<br />
Below the slot:<br />
BICYCLE<br />
OIL<br />
2. Early <strong>TC</strong> - Lettering 1/16” high.<br />
These early <strong>TC</strong> carbs can be easily<br />
identified with their distinctive butterfly<br />
spindle joiner between the two carbs.<br />
(Reference Mike Sherrill’s <strong>TC</strong>’s Forever,<br />
page 248.)<br />
REMOVE & USE<br />
THIN OIL<br />
MONTHLY<br />
3. Late <strong>TC</strong><br />
- Lettering<br />
less than<br />
1/8” high.<br />
These oil caps<br />
were definitely found on cars in late<br />
1948 and 1949, and specifically on the<br />
EXU’s. However, this oil cap seems to<br />
be somewhat of a rarity and may have<br />
been an interim or limited production.<br />
Markings simply show:<br />
OIL<br />
4. Late <strong>TC</strong> and Early TD - Lettering<br />
1/16” high. These oil caps are very<br />
prominent. An interesting finding is that<br />
many of these had the word “Reservoir”<br />
spelled incorrectly. Instead “Reservior”<br />
was stamped on the cap. I have 1 of<br />
these and they have been commonly<br />
reported.<br />
OIL<br />
RESERVOIR (RESERVIOR)<br />
A few <strong>TC</strong> owners report having black<br />
plastic caps with a knurled edge that said<br />
“Few Drops Thin Oil Month”. These<br />
were probably adapted from later model<br />
MGs when the original brass caps were<br />
not available. However, I would like to<br />
hear from more on these types.<br />
The cap went from round to hex with<br />
the TF so it would be inappropriate for<br />
a <strong>TC</strong>. Another cap, that has been seen<br />
is an aftermarket<br />
item, is the cap with<br />
an brass MG crest.<br />
It looks nice and<br />
adds that MG touch.<br />
All of these caps<br />
(except the MG cap)<br />
are available from<br />
Burlen Fuel Systems and can be seen on<br />
their web page www.burlen.co.uk<br />
Click on SU Carb Spares and then<br />
Damper Caps<br />
I would welcome any comments and<br />
corrections to the above. My data is very<br />
sparse so again I caution anyone drawing<br />
any absolutes from the above.<br />
Also, as a request, I am personally trying<br />
to locate 2 caps that say “OIL” for my<br />
EXU show car. I would request that they<br />
lack any major scratches. I am willing to<br />
purchase or trade existing caps for them.<br />

Long love affairs accumulate memories. Mine<br />
with cars has lasted now for about 60 years and<br />
a million miles. Small wonder then, that when I<br />
peer back along that road of memory, some short<br />
sections shine in my mind’s eye.<br />
My Memorable Rides<br />
Ninth in a series by Stan Belland<br />
August, 1985 Monte Carlo, Monaco<br />
It had been an ambition of mine to drive the Monaco Grand Prix route ever since<br />
I had seen the 1966 Frankenheimer film, “Grand Prix”, a film short on plot but<br />
very long on race driving special effects. In fact, it had won an Oscar for the<br />
racing sequences. For years I had carried around vivid recollections of the sequence<br />
in which James Garner comes out of the famous tunnel and hurtles his formula 1 car<br />
over the wall and into the blue Mediterranean.<br />
I had business in Europe and Esther and I decided<br />
to rent a car after my meetings and do some touring.<br />
During preparations for the trip, I mentioned to my<br />
client that we planned to drive the French Riviera<br />
and he sent me a special invitation from “Societé<br />
des Bains de Mer de Monaco”, better known as the<br />
Monte Carlo Casino. This was an admission to the<br />
upstairs casino, which at that time was restricted to<br />
members and invited guest and required black tie.<br />
Taking advantage of the opportunity required packing<br />
my tux but it seemed too good an experience to miss.<br />
We rented a car in Paris and headed east to Aix en<br />
Provence where the clientʼs office was located and<br />
then headed toward the Riviera. Notwithstanding the glamour of the trip, the car<br />
we rented was a Ford Escort, a tinny, underpowered little car, but adequate for our<br />
purposes.<br />
As we wandered east toward Monaco, Esther was excited about a night at the<br />
Casino, but my thoughts were on the chance to drive the famous, 2.8 mile grand prix<br />
course. Monte Carlo is a beautiful little city in a country of less than three-quarters<br />
of a square mile, overflowing with money and all its trappings. The Hotel de Paris is<br />
elegant and outrageously over priced and we were well out of our depth but enjoying<br />
every minute of it. The valet took our little car with frosty courtesy and slightly<br />
flared nostrils.<br />
The night at the casino is still a memory<br />
we savor. We were all dressed up with<br />
someplace to go and we made the most<br />
of it, trying hard to act as if we belonged<br />
there. The upstairs gaming room is<br />
a little hard to describe. Red plush,<br />
tapestries, statuary, stained glass, ankle<br />
deep carpeting and an elegant hush over<br />
everything as the beautiful people who<br />
really did belong there stood and sat around tables, playing games we couldnʼt<br />
understand and didnʼt dare try. At the end of the evening we played the slots<br />
we found in one of the downstairs rooms and did pretty well, although it had no<br />
relationship to the slots in Vegas.<br />
The next morning at breakfast, I reviewed<br />
the map I had brought of the race route and<br />
believed I had it pretty well memorized. Itʼs<br />
a very twisty circuit through narrow city<br />
streets with a lot of tough grade changes and<br />
I was hyped and feeling like Alberto Ascari<br />
(who went over the ocean wall in the 1955<br />
Monaco Grand Prix).<br />
We putted out in our little Escort and, with<br />
Esther as my navigator, found the starting<br />
point, and we were off. Sometimes anticipation and imagination can make the most<br />
pedestrian event seem to be something else entirely. I drove the circuit with all the<br />
flair I could muster at top speeds approaching 40 miles an hour but with visions of<br />
racing glory flashing through my head. Thereʼs a long and dark tunnel toward the<br />
end of the circuit where you suddenly break out of the darkness onto a long straight<br />
with the sun blinding you and the bright Mediterranean on your left, guarded only by<br />
a low stone wall. At that point I was Pete Aron (played by James Garner, played by<br />
me) and the shrill, beautiful sounds of formula 1 cars were in my ears.<br />
I know it all sounds very Walter Mitty, but it happened to me and it was delightful.<br />
Some day, if they are interested, Iʼll tell my grandkids about how grandpa drove the<br />
Monaco Grand Prix – and I may leave out that I drove it in a Ford Escort.<br />
52nd Annual <strong>TC</strong>MG/ARR Conclave<br />
October 3-5<br />
25 rooms reserved at the Yosemite<br />
Gateway Inn, in Oakhurst, for the<br />
first weekend in October.<br />
Friday, Oct 3 and Saturday the 4th.<br />
The price is $107 plus tax.<br />
Call 1-888-256-8042.<br />
The rooms are under “MG Group”. We<br />
will have the Saturday dinner in the<br />
banquet room at their restaurant.
When I was younger and had too<br />
much time on my hands, I conducted<br />
experiments with various weights oils in<br />
the SU carburetor dashpots. I tried 20W,<br />
30W, 40W, ATF, and sewing machine<br />
oil (3 in 1). The oil acts as a damper to<br />
piston rise. Lighter weight oils result<br />
in a faster rise of the piston. Faster rise<br />
places more fuel into the combustion<br />
chamber. Slower rise yielded slower<br />
acceleration times. What I ended up<br />
with was you burned more fuel with<br />
lighter oils, but got better acceleration.<br />
Photo by Thelander<br />
Carb Dashpot Oil<br />
The heavier oils, after 20W, really<br />
dropped the acceleration times.<br />
You got better mileage with 20W, than<br />
lighter oils, and acceptable acceleration.<br />
So, 20W was probably determined to be<br />
a good all around by the factory.<br />
Bill Phy told me about vacuum pump<br />
oil. Same viscosity hot or cold. That is<br />
what I’ve used since being told about it<br />
maybe 15 years ago.<br />

MG<strong>TC</strong> WANTED!!<br />
I want to buy a <strong>TC</strong> that is<br />
mechanically solid. I don’t care<br />
too much what it looks like. I<br />
can’t afford a fully restored<br />
car, as much as I would like<br />
one. But I want one that is very<br />
drivable, even if cosmetically<br />
it needs work. My intent is<br />
not to restore it for a profit. I<br />
just love <strong>TC</strong>s, as all of you do,<br />
and I miss driving and owning<br />
one (I’ve owned 5 <strong>TC</strong>s and a<br />
TD). Anybody have any good<br />
leads? I welcome any thoughts<br />
or suggestions you might<br />
have. I’m located in Southern<br />
California.<br />
Thanks very much,<br />

March Meeting Minutes & Program<br />
Our meetings have become so world<br />
famous that we even had the shuttle<br />
astronauts fly over for it. George<br />
Kershaw mentioned that both the space<br />
station followed by the shuttle would<br />
be visible overhead at 8:05 and so<br />
many of us trekked outside to view it.<br />
Sure enough, from out of the southern<br />
sky came a white speck followed by<br />
a second white fleck in the sky. Both<br />
disappeared to the north after a couple<br />
minutes. That was the first time I had<br />
ever seen either in the sky live.<br />
Thanks George for cluing us in.<br />
So we wandered back in and<br />
our illustrious president, Dave<br />
Coleman, got our meeting started<br />
at 8:11. We approved the minutes<br />
of the last meeting as printed in<br />
the March <strong>Midget</strong> <strong>Chassis</strong>.<br />
Joyce, our treasurer, reported we<br />
are still solvent. Treasurer’s report<br />
with details are posted on the wall<br />
for inspection for those that want<br />
to see details. She also reported<br />
we currently have 101 members<br />
renewed for 2008. Directory will<br />
be assembled and mailed out soon.<br />
Speaker - Tony Henkels<br />

Usual items were in our mail box,<br />
Safety Fast, other magazines plus<br />
the AAR newsletter. Items are<br />
available for anyone to look at,<br />
and or take.<br />
Only item brought up in Old<br />
Business was the GoF auction<br />
donation. Cindy Henkels already<br />
has purchased a couple items and<br />
is working on several more.<br />
As far as New Business, George<br />
mentioned Fran Thelander had<br />
arthoscopic knee work done last week<br />
and is doing well.<br />
Tour reports began with the recent<br />
Snow Tour. Dreary weather at the start,<br />
but once up on the mountain it turned<br />
out to be WONDERFUL and the small<br />
band in the group had a fabulous time<br />
building a little snowman and then<br />
placing it onto Olson’s <strong>TC</strong> bonnet.<br />
Future wildflower tour was mentioned.<br />
Reports of many flowers being visible<br />
were reported so should have flowers<br />
Tony sure had a big smile on his face as he<br />
told stories about his Linlcoln.<br />
March Minutes & Program (continued)<br />
to see. However, Joe mentioned there are hardly any<br />
at our usual location. Should a tour take place, April<br />
27 was thought to be a good time. Need to see what<br />
future rains bring. Also mentioned was that the Palm<br />
Springs Weekend had been postponed.<br />
Lloyd Hendrickson invited our <strong>Guild</strong> members to tag<br />
along on his VMG tour to the Riverside Automotive<br />
Museum on April 19. And George mentioned the<br />
VMG Hollywood Hills tour on <strong>May</strong> 17 is open as<br />
usual to our members as well.<br />
Susie Coleman is looking for places to hold the<br />
Holiday Party. Dec 7 seems to be best to avoid<br />
conflicting with the VMG and ARR parties so are<br />
aiming for that date. The Hotel Huntington Beach<br />
seems to be the favored spot so far.<br />
Your humble <strong>TC</strong>MG Secretary,<br />
David Edgar<br />
Tony was an<br />
animated speaker<br />
communicating<br />
with a smile, his<br />
voice and hands.<br />
Thanks Tony<br />
for bringing<br />
the photos<br />
and the<br />
stories.<br />
Lloyd had posession of the first<br />
winning raffle ticket and elected<br />
to take Al Moss’s new book “The<br />
Other Moss.” Susie choose the<br />
$20 Trader Joe’s gift certificate<br />
while George was quite happy with<br />
the very useful helping hand tool,<br />
perfect for his model building.
